The Ped-O-Jet injection apparatus used high pressure, rather than a hypodermic needle, to place a dose of serum under the skin. Aaron Ismach (1920-2007), head of the U.S. Army Medical Equipment Laboratory, held the basic patent. The Scientific Equipment Manufacturing Corporation introduced the term Ped-O-Jet to commerce, applied for a trademark, and began manufacturing the device in 1968.
This stamp was manufactured by the “New Jersey Next” Campaign Committee of New York Suffragists to show support for and raise awareness of the woman’s suffrage movement in New Jersey. Women had the right to vote in New Jersey from 1776 to 1807, provided they held a certain amount of property. In 1807 that right was explicitly rescinded. Women did not regain the vote in New Jersey until the 19th amendment was ratified in 1920.
This figure is part of an artist's proof or prototype set for a chess set made by Cybis and presented by President Nixon to the U.S.S.R.
According to the Cybis Archive, the White House commissioned the set to be presented during the 1972 Moscow Summit between President Richard Nixon and Soviet Premier Brezhnev. The set was inspired in part by the 14th-century Nine Heroes Tapestry, based on a 1310 poem by Jacques de Longuyon. The set was designed by Harry Burger, Jr.
